Creative graphic designer passionate about branding and motion graphics
What I'm looking for
I'm a graphic designer and brand/visual designer based in Ecuador, with 4+ years of experience building brand identities from the first idea to the final guidelines. I think in systems — I like bringing a brand's personality into every part of the work, not just the logo.
Most of my career has been as the sole designer on a project. At Claro Insurance / Algorhythms Music Group, I created the winning creative direction for Claro Insurance's "Closer Than Coverage" campaign, chosen over other designers' proposals. I also built the full brand identity for Algorhythms Music Group and other music labels, including branding, campaign decks, and motion content. Before that, I worked in-house at Alpina Ecuador, designing packaging and marketing materials for major consumer product lines.
Outside client work, I founded and grew Chimp Stories, an independent content brand, to 80,000+ followers, handling content strategy and e-commerce on my own.
I work mainly in Adobe Creative Suite and Figma, and I'm building my motion design skills further in After Effects, to bring brand systems to life beyond static assets. My style leans bright, playful, and illustration-driven, but I can also do calm, toned-down work when a brand calls for it.
I'm looking for remote brand or visual design work, ideally as an independent contractor, and I'm comfortable working with international teams across time zones.
